October 02, 2021 – Final Review + Personal Reflections of “Breath : The New Science of a Lost Art” by James Nestor
As per my 2nd (previous) posting of my reading and review-as-I-went of James Nestor’s, “Breath, the New Science of a Lost Art” – I wasn’t exactly sure where his a very savvy journalistic, yet personally involved, narrative was taking me : a surprise letdown (no), a mixed verdict (not exactly), a resounding affirmation (sorta), or…

Category Links – Adan’s Reviews
I am organizing my varied interests 😊 I’d initially tried to do this when I began my blog on WordPress in early-2011, then drifted into simply exploring what I was enjoying at the time. This is my new late-2019 effort to organize my disparity, lol!

Adan’s Book Reviews – The Quick Guide to WordPress and Pinterest : Out-of-Date and STILL 4 Stars 😊
…my recommendation is, if you’re a Pinterest user, but a user-beginner like me, and, since there were things I wasn’t even aware of, or up to date on myself, is – esp since it’s free! – grab a copy, and see what you already know and what you might not had thought was possible just…
